Scotland is having some pretty extreme weather now, though

Unless a tree fell on the car it shouldn't stop running because of some wind & rain. This is basic stuff, I don't know why people don't get this.

Rain kills cars literally all the time when idiots drive them through flooded roads.

"Some wind and rain". The Edinburgh and Cannonmill area, where this story is from, has had at least two floods this month severe enough to submerge parked vehicles.

Have you not heard of flooding?

This is basic stuff, I don't know why people don't get this.

Perhaps it's the other way around?

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
